What we do

What we do

In 2011 we homed approximately 100 cats, all of which without the help of the local branch may well have ended up homeless, suffering, or even worse!

In addition to this, we neutered nearly 300 cats.

We cover the postcodes as listed on the homepage.  As you can imagine the areas we work with and the people and cats we deal with are all very diverse, but one thing is for sure - they need our help!  Without the branch's cat work there would be lots more unhappy cats across the area!

We rescue and rehome cats and kittens in our area, which may have come in for various reasons - sometimes people move and leave their cat, sometimes their owner dies, sometimes they are found wandering and injured and sometimes they are handed in when people just can't cope anymore!

We help with feral colonies -  these can be a big problem in both urban and rural areas, and our dedicated team of volunteers do their best to trap, neuter, and return theses feral cats.

We care for long term ill and elderly cats - we;re always looking for permanent foster homes for these cats, and in the mean time they need to be looked after and given their medication when necessary!

We also give all our cats a full 'MOT and service'!

All this is done with no government or lottery funding, and we rely solely on the goodwill and donations from local people and the people we help!  None of the volunteers receive a salary from Cats Protection, and many give up hours of their time every week!
